I've been feeling a little down about not being able to put up my Halloween decorations and such this year. So when our "ward" playgroup said they were going to a pumpkin patch this week I knew we had to go. Besides the corn maze, hayride, awesome slides, jumping pillow, and donuts and cider, the girls each got to pick a pumpkin to bring home. The question is should we paint them, carve them, or just leave them original?

After a week's drive, a week in New York, a week back in Idaho, I'm finally back to New York for good. (Well, for a long while at least.) We still live in a hotel but the girls and I have been spending our days house hunting. (Found a great one yesterday but We'd have to get it for the right price so I'm sure the search will continue.)

Here's a few pictures from our last days in Idaho and some of our new adventures thus far in New York.
